Estate Protectors

Having your "estate affairs" organized and receiving legal, expert, and specialized attention from a qualified and trained team of professionals is absolutely critical to protect your assets from abuse and undue influence.

That is our mission and primary goal in establishing this blog. Over the next several weeks and months we will be providing alot of valuable information to help seniors organize their estate affairs to help protect them from potential abuse. Abuse can be physical but in most cases is emotional and financial.

Ther are options available to help seniors structure their affairs to stop or minimize abuse.

You need to structure your estate affirs now when you still ae young enough to stop abuse. In many cases the cost is so small to your entire estate that it doesn"t make sense to delay or prolong our estate plan.

Keep posted. Have a greatday. Cheers

How do we define who is a Senior in Canada

The definition of a Senior in Canada varies from where you are and under what circumstances one finds themselves under at the time. I would suggest  alot of these questions can be directed to the below link which I urge anyone over 50 plus ought to become familiar. Given there will be more Seniors 50 + by 2015 than children in Canada under 14 that alone should make us all pause for a few moments. I believe the more we learn as a group about Seniors we will all become the benefactor of good news .
